A horizontally oriented wood engraving in black ink on light paper depicts a reclining woman with light skin tone, her head resting on her arm with eyes closed and lips parted. Dense parallel lines and fine hatching define the form and features. Her arms tuck toward her chest as she rests against a curved, grid-patterned surface. Handwritten text reads "A/P" on our left and "Jack Van Deckter" on our right.
